When should baby be head down?

I have been trying to google this, but seem to be finding all sorts of different time frames. †Just curious, when is the baby typically supposed to move into position for birth? †I will be going in for an ultrasound this week, but am not sure what position the baby is in. †Sometimes it feels like he is head down and then I will feel him do a complete flip. †Around when should the baby move to the head down position and stay there? †

Some babies don't get in to the head down position until labor is about to start.¬† They can turn whenever!¬† DD was head down since before 20 weeks, and this LO I think turned head down a few weeks ago, but that doesn't mean she will stay like that.

By the time you give birth......there is no week. A friend had hers flip on the way to the hospital on her due date for her scheduled c. Some babies go back and forth over and over....mine always seemed to be head down by 38ish weeks....and acrobats up until then.
